Who pays for you to be in college right now?
The roof over your head while you're there?
Other than classes and homework, what other responsibilities do you have right now?

And I'm not asking this rhetorically, I legitimately would like to know.

When I went to college, I had to pay for it all myself, so I never assume that someone else doesn't have to. But based on what you say on here usually, I'm going to assume that you don't fit into that description, though I could be wrong.

It's called i earned it high school by getting a part scholarship and I had to pay the rest
With the money I earned wrapping cars just because my dad works for the organization does not mean I get everything handed to me I get nothing ..

They made a huge jump in the year after they drafted Eichel. To see them make another pretty significant jump would have been nice, but in a lot of ways, unrealistic.

I think they have a good portion of the pieces they need. Unfortunately, they're missing a few significant ones. Namely 2 top 4 defenders.

I agree but it would be nice to have a new " system".

What are our options with Bogo, Moulson, Gorges? Are there any teams out there that might be willing to eat a contract? I can't stand to see them play another game in blue and gold let alone Moulson for three more years.

A lot of reporters are saying it's a post June 1st designation cut for Aaron Williams. Saves about $4.5 million in cap space.

Seems like they're up to something big and bigger than just FBs

no need to be snarky about it

I was asking because I didn't want to actually make any assumptions. When I was in college I worked two jobs in order to just be able to have a roof over my head and took out student loans (which I'm still repaying) in order to be able to get my degree.

When the team was playing well in February going into the bye week, I think this was the consensus on the board. Many believed the pieces we have available and the upcoming expansion draft presented real opportunities for us to fill those gaps.

Then we lost games in Arizona and Colorado and coughed up games to Pittsburgh and Philly, and suddenly Terry Pegula should be ashamed to ever show his face in WNY.

Buyout/waive or send to Roch/ Vegas/Arizona/Colorado

Every option to remove these players from the team should be on the table right now.

Pretty sure if the generator is running, using a tv or other such device probably isn't necessary. Last I checked, the main reason people have generators is so that the heat still works, some lights, and the fridge so all the food doesn't spoil.

anything else is not necessary to use at that point. Read a book. Play a board game.

That'd be a good pickup. Then safety and DB in draft
- Whatnot78

Yes! I'm telling you, we gotta get Sidney Jones at #10 (hopefully still there,) then Safety in round 2. Safety is really deep and I really like the kid from Utah, who I'm hoping will be there in Round 2. Don't think Budda Baker will last to round 2. Jones will be a top 3 Corner in the league by his 2nd year. Dude is a serious game changer. Gilmore defenders will forget all about him if Jones is here.

All this talk of Eichel "wasting away" in Buffalo makes him sound like hes 25-26 and has multiple massive point season under his belt. The kids hasn't even played two full seasons, it seems the media loves to crap on us for being bad at the start of the year, and now we are getting more crap for letting our talent waste away bc the team isnt in the playoffs? The same team they said wouldn't make the playoffs in the first place
- Sabres1523

I don't think anyone is saying that. I think they are saying they are wasting a great year from a superstar. Which is totally fair.

Rams agreed to terms with Robert Woods, formerly of the Bills, on a five-year, $39-million contract.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the deal contains $15 million guaranteed. It is a nice chunk of change for a receiver who has never topped 700 yards in a season, but that will likely change in what could be a pass-heavy attack under new coach Sean McVay. Even with Woods locked up, the Rams need to add more weapons to the passing game.


Am I missing something ?
